Union unveil new 2012 primary and secondary kits

Chester, Pa. (November 22, 2011) – Philadelphia Union unveiled new primary and secondary jerseys today in advance of the 2012 season. Authentic, replica and youth jerseys are available for purchase exclusively in the club's online shop. Replica jerseys are currently available for shipment, while authentic and youth jerseys are due to ship in early 2012.

MLS teams have the option to change uniforms in two-year intervals. The two new jerseys will be the fourth and fifth versions for the Union, as the club debuted a white third jersey last year, in addition to their original blue and gold jerseys. The third jersey will remain the same in 2012.

The new primary jersey is inspired by the club's first primary jersey, maintaining a navy blue base with a gold center stripe. The new version features thicker signal blue piping, as well as a center stripe that extends to the collar and narrows as it reaches the bottom.

The new secondary jersey is a complete variation from the original gold secondary jersey, featuring a signal blue base and a white center stripe flanked by gold piping.
